I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you're on the spectrum and a teacher ever asked you whether you would like to teach this lesson instead since you clearly already know everything about the subject, they weren't actually impressed by your immense knowledge of the subject that you were proud to be sharing. That's just teacher code for "can you like shut the fuck up."

This is the only known photo of the first trans woman to have her gender legally recognized in Switzerland.

In 1914, Adine T. sent a letter to her local police to grant her a pass to dress as she pleased. She petitioned that "I be granted permission to live as a woman, to wear female clothing and to pursue female occupations, and to be considered a woman before the world in all and every respect, since my emotional feelings are totally feminine and I feel unspeakably unhappy in male clothing."

Her gender was so clear that even the conservative Swiss government had to recognize it. Obtaining permission to live as a woman "is a matter of life and death for me," Adine added.

111 years ago, it was the first pass of its kind in her nation (although not the first in Europe). When interviewed, Adine described herself similarly to other trans lesbians in the 20th century: "a homosexual woman in a male body.” Source: Matthias Ruoss, "Arnold, Arnoldine, Adine."

Hello friends, I am Abdullah Salem Abdullah Jaafar, 26 years old, a graduate of the University College with a degree in Information Technology - Multimedia. I used to have a beautiful family; I’m married and have four children, and my wife is pregnant.

I previously worked at a multimedia company, but because of the war, I lost my job, my home, my car, and now I have no place to live or work.

During the war, we were forced to evacuate more than four times. Each time, we had to leave everything behind without taking any of our personal belongings.

I live in northern Gaza.

We were displaced to southern Gaza, then to Deir al-Balah, then to Rafah, and now we live in an uninhabitable tent that is not suitable for living.

My daughter Rahaf was martyred in the war due to Israeli airstrikes. Now I have Iman, Malak, Basel, and my wife is in her seventh month of pregnancy.

Please, I am in desperate need of your help just to provide food and water for my children.

I lost my home and we have become homeless."

Moments before Robespierre’s death, the executioner noticed that his head would not fit into the guillotine with the bandages applied to his jaw wounds, so he brutally ripped them off; from Robespierre’s ruined throat emerged a ghastly piercing scream, only cut short as the blade fell upon his neck. The status of this last scream is legendary: it gave rise to a whole panoply of interpretations, mostly along the lines of the terrifying inhuman screech of the parasitical evil spirit which signals its impotent protest when it is losing possession of its host human body - as if, at this final moment, Robespierre humanized himself, discarding the persona of revolutionary virtue embodied and emerging as a miserable scared human being.

I made this little sticker set based on gynandromorphic butterflies, which possess both male and female sex traits and often appear multicolored! <3

In 1989, Time Magazine released a special issue showing how the magazine would have portrayed the news had it existed in 1789. 

This is Time Magazine’s foreign interest article on the beginning of the French Revolution and the storming of the Bastille.

Marat est mort. Non, Marat n'est pas mort. Mettez-le au Panthéon ou jetez-le à l'égout, qu'importe, il renaît le lendemain. Il renaît dans l'homme qui n'a pas de travail, dans la femme qui n'a pas de pain, dans la fille qui se prostitue, dans l'enfant qui n'apprend pas à lire ; il renaît dans les greniers de Rouen, il renaît dans les caves de Lille; il renaît dans le grenier sans feu, dans le grabat sans couverture, dans le chômage, dans le prolétariat, dans le lupanar, dans le bagne, dans vos codes sans pitié, dans vos écoles sans horizon, et il se reforme de tout ce qui est l'ignorance, et il se recompose de tout ce qui est la nuit. Ah ! que la société humaine y prenne garde, on ne tuera Marat qu'en tuant la misère; Charlotte Corday n'a rien fait ; tant qu'il y aura des misérables, il y aura sur l'horizon un nuage qui peut devenir un fantôme, et un fantôme qui peut devenir Marat.
